                                                 Opened in 1961, Gentz Marina was located on the east
                                                    side of Catfish Creek (which I could not locate this

                                                creek on any old maps unfortunately-maybe the channel
                                                 around Belle Maer Harbor??). Gentz also had a small
                                                 store, the Stop and Shop. The marina was sold in 1978.
